As a Moments subpage, all spoilers are unmarked as per policy. You Have Been Warned.


  • In the intro sequence, Andrew and Helga tell Jimmy they’re going to their room for “adult fun time”. Using Jimmy’s slime form to sneak in reveals they’re hula-hooping, of all things, and Helga scolds Jimmy for making things awkward.
  • Information Guy repeatedly dying in humorous ways.
  • Whenever you face Johnny Knives, if you steal his knives, his sprite becomes the sad Johnny No-Knives and he is unable to hit you any more.
    • In the Subway you will find mutated clones of the Petty Thugs. Johnny's clone is named Johnny Tentacles, and you can repeatedly steal his tentacles to weaken him. If you do this until there's none left, he becomes the helpless Johnny No-Tentacles and has the same dejected look.
    • You can face the Petty Thugs in the Kingland Arena, after they've gained a major makeover and improved themselves a lot. Johnny now becomes Johnny Katana, but if you're lucky enough to steal his katana, he becomes Johnny No-Katana who's fallen to his knees and is constantly crying.
  • When you first reach Everchip, you land in Mulgren's Shack, where he tells you that he took in Lars the Lazy Bum after he crashed outside, but was so irritated by Lars' laziness that he sent him off to Kingsland. He did mention that Helga's been in a similarly catatonic state, but manages to tolerate her as he believes he's become smitten with her. Helga, who's already picked herself up at the mention of Lars, quickly turns down Mulgren.
  • The mere fact that Shinryu Academy temporarily changes the gameplay to a visual novel, of all things, with Punch Tanaka becoming a janitor who's really bad at his job.
  • Though it's a bit sad to see that Lars's past with bullying leads him to have a hard time in Shinryu Academy, the first meeting with local bully No-Goodnick has him groveling immediately, which leaves No-Goodnick a little stunned since he only wants to outline the pecking order.
  • The Kung Fu Tower is full of very eccentric martial artists, and you "defeat" them through various shenanigans:
    • Shaking a pacifistic martial artist to provoke them into a fight.
    • Spooking nervous martial artists by approaching them from behind.
    • Spooking a martial artist by dragging them to the side so that you can approach them from behind.
    • Accepting a martial artist's bribe so that you don't get to fight them.
    • One martial artist is so gung-ho that they defeat themselves for you.
  • In one of the flashbacks to Lars's past, he uses his late father's favourite music to help cheer Helga up. It's also in the soundtrack, called "The Please God Make It Stop Polka."
  • In a flashback to Buck's past, Jimmy tries to train like his brother but is struggling to lift a weightless barbell. Buck is pleased at Jimmy's effort but just watches his brother struggle. Right at the end, Helga comes in and discovers what's happening.
    Helga: Buck, have you seen — Jimmy!!
